Conclusions drawn by the existing studies indicate that such transactions do not result in a better performance, they erode acquiring firm's shareholders value, and also produce highly volatile market returns. A number of studies have analysed reasons for such inefficiencies and pointed out to several factors behind them. However, to the best of our knowledge, very little attention has been given to the business evaluation process as an influencing factor. Therefore, by providing a holistic view, the aim of this work is to investigate how the components involved in the business evaluation process influence the outcome of Merger and Acquisitions. Overall, the findings reveal that strictly controlled and inter-linked components relating to the business evaluation process have a significant impact on the outcome of the cross-border transactions. Further, the results also point out that if the selection and assessment of target firms is improved, the Merger and Acquisition results will be better. eng Selection, valuation and performance assessment: Are these truly inter-linked within the M&A transactions? journal article URL https://docta.ucm.es/bitstreams/87cb3dd2-ec2e-46b0-91a4-6298e60f6af0/download File MD5 68515cbb563c2ca5a820ffeb9accd1f8 1346566 application/pdf Hassan-Selection.pdf URL https://docta.ucm.es/bitstreams/6bb255a7-c188-4357-a9ff-279cec9586f1/download File MD5 d5f7627d9f05f064bb15854c9652907d 93874 text/plain Hassan-Selection.pdf.txt
